GOOD. I USUALLY BOIL THE SPARE RIBS FIRST, POUR TWO BOTTLES OF OUR FAVORITE BARBEQUE SAUCE OVER TOP OF THEM AND SLOW COOK UNTIL THEY FALL APART. WHAT I LIKED ABOUT THIS RECIPE WAS THE GREEN PEPPERS AND ONIONS. I CAN'T SAY WE CARED MUCH FOR THE TOMATO GRAVY. EVERYONE ASKED ME TO GO BACK TO MY ORIGINAL RECIPE ONLY ADD THE VEGGIES. SERVED THE RIBS WITH BAKED POTATOES (WASH, POKE HOLES, SPRAY TIN FOIL WITH BUTTER SPRAY AND SPRINKLE PRETZEL SALT IN THE BUTTER. WRAP TIN FOIL TIGHTLY AROUND POTATO AND PLACE IN OVEN ON 350 FOR 2 HOURS---YUMMY) AND SALAD. FILLING HALFTIME DINNER!

This is awesome. The meat cooked up so juicy and tender. I used boneless country spare ribs and it turned out fantastically.

Too much lemon for us and needs spices added. I ended up putting the ribs on a pan, sprinkling with my favorite spices and grilled a few minutes.

Oh my goodness. I just wasted 6 lbs of Ribs on this. I suggest a minor adjustment to the amount of vinigar. Like maybe 1 1/2 tbsp.?

I wouldn't call this a barbeque recipe but it was tasty. I added about 3 tablespoons of cornstarch mixed with enough water to dissolve cornstarch and added it to the tomato sauce to thicken the sauce. I also added a few generous shakes of granulated garlic and used boneless country style ribs. I will shred the left over meat and use it with the sauce on sandwich rolls.

This was ok, not what I expected tho. I don't think I will be making this one again, the sauce was waaaay to thin and runny for me. Almost like rib soup.

This is a great recipe.... I added a touch of Kraft Barbecue sauce to give a little more taste than just the tomato sauce. My husband loved it and so did I....EASY

Definitely trim the fat from the ribs! Otherwise your sauce will be too greasy. After 10 hours in the slow-cooker, the meat was very tender. I wasn't that impressed with the sauce. It was pretty runny. Next time I think I will strain out the meat and veggies when they are done and put the juice into a saucepan and thicken with some cornstarch. I did like serving it with the rice.

This was GREAT. My whole family loved it. I have 5 children and they ate it up. We served it with rice so we could spoon the tomato broth over the rice. Yummy.

I really liked this recipe. The tomato sauce, peppers and onions gave it great flavor, although it wasn't BBQ-y. I did only about 1.5 pounds of ribs, one can of tomato sauce and about half of a large onion. My 23 month old wasn't much of a fan, but my husband enjoyed them!

My friends and I enjoyed this. However, I prefer to cook a batch of cornbread to serve with the ribs. The sauce soaks into the bread and the slight sweetness of the cornbread is a great compliment!

My husband and I loved this recipe. I added carrots to the other veggies and cooked it on high for the last 2 hours. Then I thickened the sauce with a little flour/water mixture. It will definitely be a regular meal in our house!!!!!

I make it the day before and put it in the refrigerator over night. All the fat comes up to the top and I take it off and it is delicious. Also, tastes great over egg noodles.

Be sure to trim fat from ribs before browning and cooking. I didn't think to do that and they came out kinda of greasy. Sauce was kind of thin and runnier than I expected, but very tasty and easy to make. The meat does just fall apart.
